About the Opportunity:
The mission of Brown University is to serve the community, the nation and the world by discovering, communicating and preserving knowledge and understanding in a spirit of free inquiry, and by educating and preparing students to discharge the offices of life with usefulness and reputation.
The Office of College Admission
supports this mission through the recruitment, selection, and enrollment of students that will embrace the rigorous yet flexible Open Curriculum and challenge each other intellectually while fostering a community centered around kindness and questioning.
The Office of College Admission thinks broadly about diversity of background and experience while emphasizing academic and extracurricular excellence. Grades, standardized test scores, essays, recommendations, independent work, the quality of the secondary school program and achievements outside the classroom are among the factors used to evaluate this promise, but no one of these measures is considered determinative. It is the university's experience and judgment that this mix of students will foster the vibrant educational atmosphere that provides the best educational experience for all students.
Responsibilities:
The Office of College Admission at Brown University is seeking Adjunct Readers for the 2023-2024 undergraduate admission application reading season. This part-time, temporary position assists in the holistic review of first year applications to Brown University, and includes reviews of academic credentials, recommendations, activities and essays. Adjunct Readers provide written evaluations of credentials utilizing established criteria and professional judgment. From their assigned geographic regions, they will prepare cases, recommend decisions, and present cases to the Board of Admission. Readers must be able to maintain a high level of confidentiality.
All reading and review is web based and completed remotely on a flexible schedule. Adjunct Readers are expected to commit a minimum of 15-20 hours per week between mid December and late March. Training will be provided in mid-December. The salary for this position is $31.00 an hour.
Qualifications:
  • Experience with international curricula and grading systems is preferred.
  • Familiarity with secondary school transcripts is required, as is knowledge of various educational systems.
  • Demonstrated ability to support a community of diverse perspectives and cultures in an inclusive environment.
  • Well developed computer skills and strong writing and analytical abilities are essential; we are looking for candidates who can read carefully and quickly.
  • A Bachelor’s Degree and one to three years of reading experience in college admission are required, preferably at a highly selective college or university.
We cannot consider those who are current admission professionals, such as independent consultants, or the parents, guardians, or immediate family members of a high school senior who plans to apply to Brown, or current employees of Brown.
Additional Information:
Applicants are asked to include a resume and cover letter.
All offers of employment are contingent upon successful completion of a background check.
